This recipe can be easily modified to create your favorite style of pizza in sandwich form. For safety, use only fully cooked or pre-cooked meats. Food poisoning due to under cooked or raw meat is not fun!
 
Makes 2 Sandwiches.
 
Ingredients:
 
4 pieces of sliced bread
butter
**(not margarine!)**
4 mozzarella slices
Pepperoni (cut in half or mini)
Italian seasoning or basil
Parmesan cheese (optional)
Pizza sauce (optional, for dipping)

 
Directions:

Warm a medium or large skillet over medium heat. While the pan is heating, butter each piece of bread on one side.

When skillet is hot, place a piece of bread butter side down on the skillet then add one slice of cheese and small shake of Italian seasoning or basil (add a small shake of Parmesan cheese here too if desired).

Top with a desired amount of pepperonis (I use about 8 -10 whole regular pepperoni slices per sandwich). If any other toppings are desired, add them now.

Add another slice of mozzarella and top with a slice of bread, butter side up. Repeat with second sandwich.

When bottom slice is golden brown , flip the sandwich over carefully and cook until it too is golden brown.

Once both sides are browned to your liking, remove the sandwich from the pan, cut into triangles if you wish to do so, and serve with pizza sauce if desired.
